Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

New (to me) Specialized Roubaix Comp
Here she is....my first road bike since the late 80's, a 2005 Specialized Roubaix Comp. Got some new Speedplay Zero's and have been on a couple of rides so far. Rides great! Got it for exercise and am also planning on doing a couple of triathlons this summer and fall, one sprint and one Olympic distance.

I snatched this '05 Elite frame off Ebay back in '08 for $275. It was like NOS. That was many miles ago.
